Human Development

Meaning

Concepts

Approaches
 Question:
•Why is it important for
us to learn about child
and adolescent
learners and their
learning principles?
 Question:
•When or how do we
start knowing our
students?
Learning Objectives:

1.Define human development.

2. Distinguish the different approaches

to Human Development.
3. Determine the various principles of
child and development learning.
 Human Development

• Is the pattern of movement or change that

begins at conception and continues through
the lifespan.
• Development can be negative or positive
when it comes to changes.
Activity Time!
“Stand or Sit”
Goal is to make everyone
stands and sit at the same
time.
 Question:
•How can we connect
what we did in the
activity to what we
learned in the lesson?
 Principles of Development
• Development is relatively orderly
Types of pattern
1.Proximo distal pattern
=> development proceeds from center to
extremities.
2. Cephalocaudal pattern
=> development proceeds from head to toe.
 Principles of Development

• While the pattern of development is

likely to be similar, the outcomes of
development are likely to vary
among individuals.

• Development takes place gradually.

 Principles of Development
• Development as a process is complex because it is a
product of biological, cognitive and socio-emotional
processes.
Ice Breaker!
If you had a time machine, would
you go back in time or into the
future? And what will you do?
Approaches to development
Traditional Approach
VS
The traditional approach
emphasizes extensive
change from birth to
adolescence, little or no
change in adulthood, and
decline in late old age.
Life-span Approach
The life-span approach
emphasizes
developmental change
during adulthood as well
as childhood.
According to Balte’s
Lifespan perspective emphasizes that:
1.Development is lifelong
=> It doesn’t end in adulthood.
2. Multidimensional
=> never simple, it is complicated it
is a complex process.
3. Plastic
=> development is possible
throughout life span.
4. Contextual

=> individuals change in a

changing world.

5. Multidisciplinary

=> Growth, maintenance

and Regulation.
Summary
Human development begins at conception and lasts a lifetime.
Positive or negative, it studies systematic human change and
stability scientifically. Development is ordered, with the proximo
distal and cephalocaudal patterns.
Development comprises complex biological, cognitive, and socio-
emotional processes.
The traditional approach emphasizes rapid change from infancy
to adolescence, little change in adulthood, and decline in old age.
The life-span approach emphasizes adult and childhood
development. People change in a changing world, and their
environment, circumstances, and experiences shape them.
Habits, practices, and nutrients must be consistent to manage
growth.

3. Development is relatively orderly.

4. Proximo distal patterns develop from head to toe.

5. Cephalocaudal patterns develop from center to extremities.

Quiz: True or False
6. While the pattern of development is likely to be similar, the outcomes
of developmental processes and the rate of development are likely to
vary among individuals.
7. Development takes place gradually.

8. Development as a process is complex because it is a product of

biological cognitive and socio-emotional processes.

9. The traditional approach emphasizes extensive change from birth to

adolescence, little or no change in adulthood, and decline in late old age.

10. The life-span approach emphasizes developmental change during

adulthood as well as childhood.
Assignment:
Write an essay about yourself,
focusing on the experiences in
your life that have shaped you
into the person you are right now.
It could have a positive or
negative impact.
